Grognaurd is gonna love this.
Birds Carry Resistant Bacteria (http://www.the-scientist.com//?articles.view/articleNo/38254/title/Birds-Carry-Resistant-Bacteria/): Scientists find vancomycin-resistant Enterococci in crow fecal samples from across the U.S.
"Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem around the world, but the various ways that bacteria gain resistance genes are still not well understood. Now, researchers from Tufts University in Massachusetts, Binghamton University in New York, the University of California, Davis, and the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences Brno in the Czech Republic have found vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE) in fecal samples from American crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos), which live in close proximity to humans in urban areas. Their work was published online this summer (August 6) in Environmental Microbiology..."
